Phylogenetic tree of the family Anaplasmataceae.
16S rRNA sequences of members of the family Anaplasmataceae were aligned using ClustalW, a phylogenetic tree was built using raxml, and the tree was visualized with Dendroscope as described in the ‘Experimental procedures’. Grey box highlights Neorickettsia species.
GenBank Accession numbers and locus tag numbers for the 16S rRNA sequences are N. helminthoeca Oregon, NZ_CP007481/NHE_RS00195; N. risticii Illinois, NC_013009.1/NRI_RS00185; N. sennetsu Miyayama, NC_007798.1/NSE_RS00200; A. phagocytophilum
